Financial Aid & Scholarships

If you are a degree-seeking student, financial aid may help defray the cost of courses.

To apply, click here. Online courses, video courses, New College LifeTrack learning contracts, and classes
taken at the Gadsden Center are all considered face-to-face courses for financial
aid purposes. Written correspondence (Independent Study) is calculated differently.
You will need to be aware of this when applying for financial assistance and enrolling
in written correspondence courses. For more information contact the Academic Outreach
Student Services office at 1-800-467-0227 or aoinfo@ccs.ua.edu.

Please read: The course start date you enter effects when your financial aid will
disburse. Financial aid will not disburse before the start date you enter for the course.
